Default looking for upholsterer

Anyone know of an upholstery place, or someone that works with leather, I have a rip in one of my seats.
Anything in or around Philadelphia would be great.
Thanks in advance

how bad? and how bad are the seats overall, might be cheaper to pick up some Z06 seat skins, or some nice aftermarket seat covers such as ECS. I switched and have my stock skins (all black Z seats from an 03) if you're interested. I can only imagine what it would cost to fix it right.

Thanks UT, I actually have a lil rip in my sparco seat, and I was thinking of just having a lil piece of leather put on the side bolster, and I think the rip occured from getting in and out of the car.

boat upholstery...i used this guy a year ago, was pretty good, he was able to cut a very complex backer board over 12 ft long and about 3 -6 inches wide and curvy. from a completely desintigrated original. he also redid my sunpad. pretty basic design, not a custom cigarette or anything, just a searay, but good prices and got it done , no games. Ron Harttraft <jersea2012@gmail.com>
he's got a website somewhere... http://jerseamarineusa.com/
as i recall he's located in bucks county area. and has a place down the jersey shore as well.
